Recenzii
." . . Marazzi's anthology bristles with serial gangster fiction, breathless flapper romances, and impassioned tales of triumph over poverty, all of which make for a sharp contrast with his erudite elucidation of their historical context. The result is a glimpse of a largely forgotten literary heritage and of the life of what one epigraph calls 'the Italian immigrant in the land of America who, enduring danger and derision, built a nation that never became a homeland."-The New Yorker
"Marazzi offers a critical anthology of the so-called great migration decades (1880-1920) along with observations on journalism (the first Italian newspaper in the United States, L'Eco, was founded in New York in 1849), the relations of Italians and blacks, and the indifference of the Italian intelligentsia to the concerns of the emigrants. . . . Essential."-Choice
"Marazzi's work is certainly a worthy endeavor, and the excellent translation by Ann Goldstein documents for the English reader the existence of a large body of literature of emigration."-Journal of Modern Italian Studies
